HCMC - Day 3

day 3, same breakfast, so no photos to show
then a quick city tour
and then 2 hrs ride to Vung Tau
went to the local temples....no photos
coz i dun really like to take photos of religious building (inside) ever since the UK trip......(kekeke..tt will be another story, but to cut long story short, i took the napolean's tomb and stuff in the museum, after i developed the photos out, i very scare leh....damn eerie, so decided there and then i will never do such thing again)
we also visited the whale temple......got the remains of the whale
which the locals felt tt the whale "saved" their fishermen who went out to sea and met the storm and the whale went under the boats and brought the fishermen back to shore and it died there........
gam dong!!
